AFTER witnessing a woman kill a
chicken, we have concluded that
such exhibitions are proper consid-
Grafton for humane societies. She
first chops the beak partially off
close to the eye, then the AK be-
comes turned unknown to her and
She brings it down next time blunt
end first on the shoulder of the
fowl. 1t squaks, of course. Six.
teen TO twenty-three more blows
follow when the entire neck is
nicked and battered to a jelly. After
this to complete the job, the woman
holds the head of the chick with
the AK by one hand and pulls at the
feet with the other unul separation
is effected. These are facts as seen
by the naked eye, without being
able TO rescue the chicken.

FoR an infant suowstorm Satur
days effort was worthy of midwin-
ter. The snow began to fall, almost
imperceptibly at first, about mid
night. The ground was warm and
the flakes soon melted, but with the
advance of tie early morning hours
the storm heightened, the cold IN
creased, and at daybreak a good hol d
had been obtained on the ground by
the "beautlful snow" Soon a spot
less white mantle bedecked the
streets and housetops, aud ABOUT s
O'Clock the storm ragged furoasIy
The wind was from the northwest
on the prairie but in the city il
eddied about and blew in gusts from
every point on the compass. Old
